How to do girl's hairstyles: Pull Through Angled Ponytail 7-10 Min

It's October already! The rain and wind are here, and it's bye bye to the sunshine for us! All you fabulous ladies that want to be considered for this month's Creative Genius, send me your stuff by Oct. 15th. You can post it on my Facebook page,  or you can email me at girlzhair@gmail.com. This month I'm looking specifically for some fun Halloween hairdo's. I'll definitely be posting pictures you send, since I can't post everyone's how-to's, but I'm looking forward to seeing it all! I have a TON sent in already, which can always go into the pool for the coming months, so if you aren't showcased this month, never fear, there's always a chance you will be later. You ladies are brilliant!!

Here's a fun easy little hairdo, since that's what we are all about. It's a series of 5 pull through ponytails, traveling at an angle across the back. Super easy, fast, and we think, pretty cute! If your daughter's hair is not long enough to keep pulling the ponytail into the next, just leave the ends out, and keep on with the pattern, it will still be cute!

 I started by dampening the hair, and then combing it all to the angle I'll be following while doing the pull through ponytails.
On the same angle, part off your first section, and create a pull through pony in the center. 
Part off your same similar size section, and include the first ponytail's hair, and do another pull through ponytail. 
 Follow this pattern across the back of the head. Again,if your daughter's hair is too short,leave the ends out, or space your ponytails closer together or farther apart, depending on what will look better.
 We finished up with 5 pull through ponytails, and left her ponytail over her shoulder.

And C'est Magnifique! If you have time, you can band off the ponytail in even sections, or curl it, whatever you feel like!
Looking forward to all your fun Halloween do's! Happy Fall everyone! Go take some family pictures out in the trees, make some leaf rubbings, and drink some apple cider. This is my favorite time of year!
